1/350 Scale USS Gambier Bay CVE-73 for Naval Modellers

The Hasegawa 40027 kit recreates the USS Gambier Bay CVE-73 in fine 1/350 scale, offering scaled fittings and clear part separation to aid construction. The moulding quality supports careful painting and small-scale detailing for experienced builders.

This escort carrier's wartime service, including its part in the Battle off Samar, is reflected in the kit's supplied decals and profile. Model makers can focus on deck layout, superstructure alignment and realistic finishes to convey the ship's wartime appearance.

  • Scale: 1/350
  • Material: High-quality plastic
  • Assembly: Requires glue and paint (not included)
  • Decals: Authentic markings for accurate detailing

What preparation helps a neat build?

Clean parts, remove flash carefully, dry-fit sections before gluing, and take time on seams to ensure crisp joins for the best appearance.

Is extra weathering recommended?

Light weathering can add realism to the finished model; use washes and subtle dry-brushing to suggest wear without obscuring detail.

Will this kit display well with other 1/350 ships?

Yes, the 1/350 scale is common for naval collections, so this carrier will integrate visually with other ships at the same scale.
